Here's my updated build I'm planning on buying.

 

Intel Core i5-4690k

Coolermaster Hyper 212 Evo

XFX R9 290 4GB

Corsair 760W AX760 80 Plus platinum

Asus Maximus VII Ranger

Arctic Cooling MX-4

Corsair 230T

Windows 8.1

 

Keyboard,mouse, hard drive and monitor are already bought

 

I'll mainly be using this machine to be playing BF4 at 1080p and streaming at roughly 720p. I'll also be doing some light video editing.

Would 8gb 1866MHz be bottlenecking this build in any way?

Xeon 1231 v3

Hyper 212 Evo

Gigabyte GTX 970

XFX XTR 550W

Asus H97 Pro Gamer (if you must have Asus), otherwise Gigabyte H6 Gaming (H97)

No need for special thermal compound

Enthoo Pro w/ window (white or black)

Windows 8.1 (from g2a.com)

16GB 1600 cl9 (cheapest you can find)

 

Much better for streaming (and also cheaper)

Spoiler

Samung Tab S 8.4
